Just got off a plane and am awaiting a connection, so I've had enough Jack Daniels to start ranting. I always sit in an aisle seat, so at least I have quick access to choke the life out of any person who decides today is the day for jihad and virgins. But crap guys. What the hell is the deal with people trying to barrel into the aisle as soon as the plane is stopped? We aren't going anywhere until the door opens, and even then, we have to wait for a bunch of people to deplane before the line starts moving. So there I am, sitting in my aisle seat whilst the occupants of the middle and window are acting like there is a place for me to go to in this aisle. It's simple effing math folks. If each row has six seats, and at each row there is only room for two people to occupy the aisle space, how are we to fit all 6 occupants into that space? This happens. Every. Expletiving. Flight. Am I the only one capable of figuring this out?? Life would be easier if I was a effing stupid as everyone else. Then I wouldn't know any better. Instead I have to get into these confrontations in very close quarters with idiots, and I tend to lose my cool, because it doesn't take a 180 IQ to figure this out.

Whatever you do. don't "build" an AR before you know it you'll have 5 . That ruger AR will be great .

I picked up this... A LT OBR. I am a little excited about this one. Now I have to buy a bunch of goodies for it.

I had some really nice Burl Maple stashed so I thought I would put it to use!! Jimping and acid etching almost make this one too pretty to use!!

  Nope, it's because British gangsters don't carry guns, they use very loud whistles instead ...

TMF, I can relate.  I am usually in business so not as bad, but even then, the guy who got on last that had to put his luggage 5 rows behind him and then expects everyone to move out of his way so he can go get his bag and be first off annoys the crap out of me.   Same goes for the luggage carousel.  If people could simply stand 10 ft back and only go get their bag when it gets to them, we wouldn't have people lookinglike storks trying to crane their neck out to catch a peek for that ever elusive black bag that they can't seem to figure out if it is theirs or not.     And if we want biggest pet peeves, it's the family of 10 clueless, once a year flyers. whom think a 10 year old is a child for preboarding.

Everybody is in a hurry to go no where...I had a guy ask me on a plane in Vegas if I was and I quote "are you going to get up or what?" my official response... "If I were to stand up, which I'm not...where the hell would I go once I stand up?"

I cannot begin to tell you the kind act that happened to me today. Partly because it's top secret and partly because it's just not super important. What I will tell you is this; I am always amazed at the people I meet on TGO. Sure there's bickering or jabs. But the smart people, the good people and the kind people that are members on this forum is beyond amazing. I've met a whopping grand total of 5 members now and they've all been a pleasure to meet. 6 soon if/when Comms ever gets off his duff and comes to collect the brass. LOL So thank you, because this is a pretty good group of good doobies.

If it gets so bad I have to use all I have loaded...........well, you all can have it!  I don't want to be here.

This would be the reason flying is hard for me sometimes. I've put hands on people. Just over a year ago I snatched some Indian guy up by his shirt who cut in line at a baggage counter. I've have a couple other incidents. I have no self control when it comes to people who lack consideration. I'm working on it. Every day is a struggle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  Blanton or Four Rose

I heard the they were changing their name because they are embarrassed.  They are dropping the "Washington"

As someone else mentioned, I guess the American military better get PC, eh:   Apache, Comanche, Chinook, Lakota, Cheyenne, Kiowa, Tomahawk, Black Hawk (Indian chief), Geronimo (mission name to kill Bin Laden), etc.   - OS

As I have read in many other posts in this section, glasses are a key part of or survival preparedness in any situation. I try to keep a spare set in the truck, my BOB and one at work. As anyone with glasses knows this can get expensive, and if you are talking about the long haul in hazardous situations you need multiple pair. I recently purchased a pair of glasses from Zenni Optical. The price was $76.78 with the best lenses, best coating, nice frames, two sets of clip on sunshades and all the bells and whistles. This would have cost me over 300 at Wally World. I was skeptical, but when they arrived, I could see great out of them and they have held up to my 2 year old wearing them. $76.78 is still a good chunk of change if you want 4 pair as back ups, so I logged on and bought a pair for as cheep as I could. This was the result. I had a pair of glasses shipped to my house for $16.85 that I can see great out of. If would have bought multiple pairs at one time shipping would have been the same. I you need to add to glasses to you survival preparedness supply, or just buy new glasses, I highly recommend Zenni optical. Full disclosure, their factories are located in other countries, but if I am in a situation where glasses will no longer be made, I need to be able to see.

We now have An AR in the safe. Again another great experience with Guns and Leather. For a low end Ar or so they say Ruger seems to have done it right. It seems to feed a lot of varieties with out issue. Overall very happy with it although I was really surprised to see it did not come with a Ruger mag.

The more I look at the stainless and carbon fiber, the better looking it gets!

The Benelli is 25% off. Around $1325 plus shipping. You have to add the coupon code 25off

When it comes to nickel Smiths they are worth a little more than the same gun blued, but only if it is mint. When a factory nickel Smith is worn you almost can't give it away; the same if it is an aftermarket nickel job. A really sharp and flawless S&W 29-2 should be worth around 750-850 with the original wood target stocks.

I couldn't watch it again if I tried. My blood pressure won't allow it. Truth hurts, I guess, or something like that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do mean this year. I got a 6 year and 1 month permit to get me to my 50th birthday and I think I saw the mail notice in the filing cabinet at home the other day looking for something else. I will check. JTM Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I like the part where they called out big govt and corporations. Guess the libertarians will join them now. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Pretty spot on video there. I'm Impressed. 

I have my renewal right now. I will try to scan it and upload tomorrow. Message or quote me tomorrow to remind me and I'll do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I rarely get all 6-year-old-girl frothy about a new movie but.... https://youtu.be/WVHlrfzLjd4 Tom Hardy as BOTH the Kray twins??

Just got my second shipment of new ammo , if your holding it good for you. If you're low get going , the going is going to get tough.

  I've said it before, there are things worse than dying.  I'll fight, but there is a limit to the worlds devolution that I want to live through

Is Stan Laurel in it too?

     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Words of wisdom   :up:

I actually prefer Bulliet Rye in my old fashions. But if you don't like that you can try Makers 47 or Russell Reserve 10. Buy some Dickle Barrel Select, you wont regret it, regardles of how you drink it.

I used to shoot out on a buddies' land, on the edge of some woods behind his house. They didn't have trash pickup, etc... just a big ol' burn pile and then a compost heap. From time to time I'd grab either an old piece of fruit or some other piece of trash to shoot up.... cans and whatever. One day I was out there with my Mossberg Maverick just havin' a good ol' time. I went to the compost pile and found a huge yellow onion. Sucker musta' been 1.5lbs or more. It had some mold on it and was gettin' mushy on one side. I had been having fun putting little holes in stuff, but this - this big onion - I wanted to vaporize it! I set it on a log about 1.5 feet off the ground. I chambered a shell (just basic birdshot) and put the barrel about 1/8th of an inch off the skin of that onion and squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezed the trigger. BOOM! There was no more onion. There was now only an onion puree... everywhere... on everything within about 20 feet of where the onion used to reside. Sadly, that is where I was. Standing, stupidly, at onionpocalypse ground zero. I did not invite myself into their home after that shooting session. And I have not shot an onion since!

#49 with black blade

I didn't used to care for these fancy doodad knives..... I'm in for #33 again though with a black blade. Lol.

In for # 615 - undecided on blade finish. Will wait for pics if that's ok

Fine...peer pressure works. I'm in for #55 with the black blade please.   Thanks  for yet another awesome knife Willis.

I've been picking up reloading supplies a little at a time. During deer season I have zero time to load but when January gets here I'll have plenty of time. I don't have near as much loaded ammo as I'd like to have but a have supplies to make me closer.

The G19 is going to be easier to carry, and give up very little in capacity/shootability to the larger gun.   However, I'd go to a rental range and shoot everything I could before I'd make a purchase decision. 

  No need to apologize.  Thanks for being willing to help keep the lights on here!  :)

Pulled up to my spot this morning and spotted a deer while I was standing by the truck getting dressed went ahead and took it it is already in the cooler processed, headed to work, not a bad way to start a work day.

I'm in again for #44 with black blade. Thanks again Willis.

In for #19 with stonewashed blade

Stone wash #41 please.

In, #4 as per my usual selection.  Not sure on blade yet.

I am in. Prefer stonewashed blade.

I'll take #3 with a black blade. Stay safe Willis.

Just a note you can get a .300Blk upper for pretty cheap for hunting purposes. Won't be top of the line or anything but if you want to go that route check out radical firearms. I'm totally happy with mine.

Its part of the socialist experiment! Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

  Thought the same thing years back, & can't remember if someone here mentioned it or where the info came from, but their employees work on a profit-sharing model.  That's why they move so fast.  Their employees will never slow down.   Hell, about 2 years ago I was at the store near old hickory and nolensville rd. The guy at the counter had a bunch of scars on this hand and we started comparing scars/war stories, he said he worked late one night, got in an accident on the way home & was messed up pretty bad.  The president of the company found out about it and flew a top notch hand surgeon out to the guy and assist with the surgery while he was in the hospital.  What says more about them, is that they don't go around bragging about that kind of thing, if the employee didn't tell people, very few would ever know.   Sounds like they really invest in their employees.

Hi Leprechaun! I recently moved my family  from (Rochester) NY to TN. Great decision, you won't regret it! There are gun shops all around, 2nd only to churches. Most shops offer the 8-hour gun-safety course for $40-45, the pre-requisite to getting licensed for carry in TN. After the course, it's a trip to the county Courthouse for permit application. FYI, you can get Class III weapons in TN. Good times! Folks here are considerably more friendly than what you and I are used to, but they do cock their head and look at you funny once you open your mouth. Casually mention you left NY to get away from all the whack-jobs and crazy politics, and they'll warm right up, and ask how cold it really gets up there. Got a friend outside Nashville (Lasscassis), also a transplant from NY. Nice country out that way. I'm outside Knoxville. Reminds me of the Finger Lakes and ADK's. Just gorgeous country here. Lush and green, fantastic weather. Have met a lot of transplants. So far we are very happy w/ the move. Feel free to ping me if you have any questions.   C'mon now, the 9's aren't THAT bad, are they really? Hollow point is still going to leave a big hole on the way out, won't it?   - K
